Christine O'Donnell tells House GOP to resist

Former Delaware Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell on Wednesday hailed House Republican freshmen for resisting a compromise deal to raise the debt ceiling, saying the debate has been all about distracting Americans from the country’s economic woes.

“They’re making sure that we don’t just get away with short-term fixes so that … Obama can get reelected in 2012,” O’Donnell said on Fox News’s “Fox and Friends.”

The tea party members are “keeping the dialogue about the very real, very tragic state of our economy right now which depends not just, you know, it’s not just our economic future, but it’s the whole existence of our country — our national security depends on the debt, everything,” she added.

The tea party Republican said establishment lawmakers and President Barack Obama are trying to “create a distraction, again, to discredit, let’s say, the boy who is saying that the emperor has no clothes.

“For decades, we’ve had a budget deficit and career politicians have ignored it. They’ve let the runaway train head to derailment doing nothing, putting on these short-term Band-Aids just so that they can survive the next election,” O’Donnell said. “What the tea party movement by chiming in is saying, ‘Hey, the mere fact that we’re even at this point is a tragedy and a very serious problem.’”

She’s asking the IRS to revoke the group’s tax-exempt status as a “charitable organization” in light of a U.S. Attorney’s decision to dismiss CREW’s complaint over her conduct during her 2010 Senate race. CREW, O’Donnell’s complaint alleges, violated its status by intervening in political campaigns and by engaging in racial discrimination.

“It’s using the justice system as a political weapon so that’s why we’re standing up to fight back to say what you did to me was wrong,” O’Donnell said on Fox. “You cannot make a politically motivated claim, false claim, and get away with it.”

Why is anyone listening to this dumbdumb, she wasn't proven innocent in the investigation into her misappropriation of funds she was in fact said in all likelyhood to have been quilty when the Repugs pulled the plug on any further investigation. She needs to go away now and slink back under her rock.

Glad to see Clitstine O'Dumbell could take a richly deserved break from her professorial dissertations of what the First Amendment says about religion to give marching orders to the party who likely would be in control of the Senate now, were it not for theocratic simpletons like her, as well as Sharron (right) Angle.

Well..., goes to prove how "titanic intellectual thought" of the Republicans comes from such sage advisers such as this highly respected "Stateswoman" from their think tank circles... They needn't worry for at least another generation, since she is young and vital and will be able to dole out advice to the leaders in her party... Republicans!... one of your Joan of Archs speaks... Hmmmm.., wasn't Joan of Arch burned at the stake.., was she a witch?.., surely she admitted that she was no witch... How come no one listened to her????....

Seriously Chrisitine. haven't we made fun of you enough? Do you really want to draw attention to yourself again. On the other hand, being on fox and friends must of made you feel smart. And does anyone know what it was the gubment did to her that she's suing for?
